iPhone 4S, despite initial dissatisfaction by some analysts and users alike, has proved many times already that it is a winning product by Apple. Since Apple started recently to release the iPhone 4S to new countries it also became available in Hong Kong. Incredibly, all devices offered as pre order were sold out in less than 10 minutes which is a record for any device. Apple offered pre orders on Friday, while the iPhone 4S will become available in retail stores seven days later.
Some analysts expect that Chinese market could prove as a crucial one for Apple’s sustained future growth. Last years profits for Apple in China (including PR China, Taiwan and Hong Kong) were more than $4.5 billions which is a considerable growth compared to the same period of 2010, when the profits were 270% lower. China buys approximately 16% of Apple’s overall sales, which is an enormous growth from only 2% back in 2009.
There are already a number of official Apple stores in China.And Chinese government was swift in removing the fake Apple stores from business earlier this year. All in all we think that Apple has a great future in China. Expectancy of high growth will probably prompt Apple to step up their offerings of services and products for this large market, and this will certainly benefit end users in China.
